Belchertown wind plot direction resolution

pannetron <pann...@gmail.com>: Jun 20 11:55AM -0700 I'm transitioning off of my old Texas Weather station to a Davis Vantage Pro2 and from weewx 4.10 to 5.1 along with Belchertown 1.2 to 1.3. The "old" setup ploted the wind dir using actual degrees; the new setup has the dir points "rounded" to one of the 16 compass points. I'd like to make my new setup use degrees in the plot. I can code python but I'm unclear on where to look (belchertown.py? vantage.py?) for changes to make! I believe the Vantage Pro2 does report wind dir in degrees, at least that's what I see in the loop packets from mqtt. Would really appreciate a push in the right direction or appropriate RTFM.   The first pic is the old plot, the second pic is how they look in the new sw...

vince <vince...@gmail.com>: Jun 20 01:10PM -0700 I would compare your skin.conf files and the Belchertown sections of weewx.conf, but Pat has a big set of docs online that you should read.
